Why does it always take a disaster to bring us together?
About this episode
After 9/11, Americans felt united. After the fires in Los Angeles, neighbors showed up for each other. Before the Million Man March, Black men were already moving with renewed purpose and responsibility.
Those moments didn’t create unity — they revealed it.
In Episode 62, we ask: Why do we wait for tragedy to reconnect? In a culture fueled by outrage and division, how do we choose empathy and shared responsibility before crisis forces it?
We already know how to come together.
The question is: will we do it on purpose?
